Diamonds, Pearls, Gold,
Silver, Corals, Gemstones,
Opals, Beads, Shells....
we want them all! Why?
Adorning oneself with
jewelry has been and will be
across cultures, religions, time,
gender and class.
Cleopatra, Josephine Baker,
MataHari,Elizabeth Taylor just to name
a few indulged in precious gems and stones
daily and today a piece of jewelry can not only show your personality, your social status but also your style!
Are you bold, a minimalist, do you like to show off, elegant, classic, do you like to have fun with it?
We humans have a need for jewelry, simply because it makes us unique, and special.
Call it a social need if you like or simply cal it: ‘I like it, it’s beautiful - it will go great with my outfit!’
Can we say that it’s part of us? My answer is, Yes! We make it part of us! It can also be a piece that brings you closer to missed relatives, it can also be something you pass on.
Shinny stones and metals are symbols of life, past, future, death, birth, wealth, etc...
Why do you love, want and need jewelry?
